Down this path I walk in love. It’s a path I didn’t choose. But I choose love anyway. Why? Because God is near. Everyday. And especially this season, this time of year, God is near. And I feel it, and I know it, and I will walk with Him, with Her, I will walk in …

SINK
Let it sink in. The efforts, the lessons, the smiles. The struggles, the pain, the doubt. The hope, the belief, the sense of what’s right, the calm, the certainty of God being near. Let it inform how you think, feel, act. Let it sink in. To your bones. LOVE. Let it sink in.

Sounds I Like
There are a lot of sounds I like; they make me happy; I can’t really explain why. Sounds like... The ice maker dropping ice; The neighbor’s car starting in the pre-dawn hours; The heater running in the garage; The kids’ quieting down to a whisper; The rattle of scooping whole coffee beans into the grinder; …
